Album unavailable on any format since 1965! Includes over 30 tracks new to CD!

Released by leading Kingston-based producer Lindon Pottinger, the musically varied 'Festival Jump-Up' provides the focus for disc one of this collection, with its original 12 tracks augmented by Tanamo's best-loved ska recordings from the period, including his oft-imitated rendering of the standard, 'I'm In The Mood For Love'

Disc 2 collects 28 of the most popular ska and r&b sides issued between 1963 and 1964 on Pottinger's revered Gaydisc and SEP labels, their number including numerous significant Jamaican hits by the likes of Jimmy James, Roy Panton & Millie Small, Winston Samuels and Dobby Dobson.

The result is a musical cornucopia of rare, high quality authentic early-Sixties Jamaican sounds, many of which have remained widely unavailable on any format until now.
